Remember our "meltdown" last year. electrical line rubbed against the frame in the under belly (poor routing and securing of wiring and cables)
it shorted on the frame and there was a hydraulic line running on top of the shorted line which burnt through the hydraulic line. Hydraulic fluid has a low flash point..result much smoke resulting in fire.. Since I was standing outside the camper as we were setting up in quartzsite our quick action prevented a serious fire and loss of the camper.The camper was 6 months old at the time and it was the first long trip.yes Keystone acted with great speed to repair the damage. Thinking back we should have taken Keystone to court..some of their workmanship borders on, if not, gross negligence. The underbelly should be dropped and inspected..most of us are driving down the road with a time bomb waiting to go off under there. As with most every other industry it will take a serious disaster with loss of life to cause change in the RV industry..
